I cut my teeth editing on a copy of Final Cut Pro 7 that my uncle gave me. My passion grew as I got older and I decided in high school - this is it. I'm currently the Video Director at K2 the Church; making short-form documentaries, short films, marketing media, motion graphics, and teaching video production.
I am always open to freelance work ranging from wedding videos, music videos, art films, short films, corporate information videos and marketing media. Feel free to contact me anytime!
“We should make a music video," Daniel said. About a year later, we finally have. From start to finish, the collaboration for “Eros” has been a fun and creatively freeing ride. It’s been an absolute pleasure to work with two incredibly creative and determined artists. With the help of many friends and love ones, we have finally finished “Eros”. Thank you. We hope you enjoy it. — Garret Hoover
The song “Eros” is featured on Daniel Pimentel’s album, “Selfish Songs”. danielpimentel.bandcamp.com

I worked with York Howell &Guymon on a series of branded videos that gave light into what they do, how they do it, and why. It was a fantastic experience working with such wonderful and professional people.

The short film explores the visions and nostalgia of time between two different stages of life. I created this short film just before I moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. In a particular way the shooting experience and finished film is an homage to Indianapolis - my hometown.

short vignette for fun
Funny story behind this video. Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee had a competition for people to create videos of coffee being brewed. Winner would be feature throughout the series. I fortunately won and I am featued in the Jay Leno epsiode. Keep on the look out for a new coffee video! I used the KONE coffee filter from Able Brewing on a Chemex coffeemaker. I know the grinder wasn't a burr grinder (shame!). But the coffee tasted great!

An oldie but a goodie. One of my personal favorite works. Inspired by the one and only George Costanza and my own very similar personal experience.
